� � Discover How To Gain Simple Step-By-Step Answers Today About Building And Flying Radio Controlled Helicopters � Radio Controlled Helicopters By Nick Papillon � � The best out there for setting up and flying! If your looking for a guide to get you started, you can't go wrong with this book. All of the sections are clearly written and logically ordered so you can get started faster and easier. BH � A Good Resource! As I'm just entering the sport of radio-controlled helicopters, Nick Papillon's book has been a very nice resource to have. He begins with choosing a helicopter and goes right through introductions to aerobatics, and covers a large amount in between. Although being English, Papillon has a few different names for things than we are used to in the States. Besides these occasional words, he is very easy to read, and he does a good job of explaining complex topics. I found his chapters on setting up the helicopter to be very useful, and his explanation of setting the gyro correctly were better than the instructions that I received with the component. He is thorough in his explanations, and covers enough material that you could go from kit to flying all on his book alone. And, should you crash your heli, he even tells you what to look for in diagnosing damage, and how to fix it. After each flight, I consult Papillon to see what I can do to correct slight problems in flying. I was hovering by my third tank of gas, and I think Papillon is a large reason for it. RD � A real guide for the beginner! The best thing about this book is that it is really a guide - it gives you all the information you need from the basics, through choosing your first helicopter model to flying and repairing it. After reading it you will feel you know something about this great hobby and be ready to get into it.
